Sam was phenomenal, and very skilled and artistic. Highly recommend. Sam is not only responsive but provides a quality product with a tremendous value. My daughters photos from college graduation are more than we had hoped, and he even allowed her the time to do a change to get a few quality headshots for the professional world. My daughter loved working w Sam, and she's a a happy as we are. FIVE STARS

We took our family portrait with Sam and he did deliver exceptional photos. He scouted the locations before and a very clear idea of what images to shoot. Definitely recommend him for any photo sessions!. Amazing photographer!

Without a doubt hire Sam as your photographer. I graduated this year and he took my graduation photos. His photos exceeded my expectations by far. He’s was so good with the lighting and he came prepared with equipment and on time. He helped me with how to pose and was so easy to work with; his personality makes you feel comfortable to pose and to feel yourself.

Lustig Photography performed no less than a miracle. They restored a photo from 1965 that had been crumpled and folded, to like it was just taken. Before and after below. Thanks Sam

Sam did a fabulous job taking pictures for a very special day in my daughter's life, called a Navjote. She is 10 and hard to work with, but he was able to get her to smile beautifully. The pictures turned out amazing! The color and lighting were beautiful and the resolution was tremendous. Only wish I had been more specific as to which group photos we wanted. But for candid shots and being able to capture the fun and excitement in the room, Sam was great! He was easy to talk to and always replied promptly. I received my photos within 2 weeks of my event. I would highly recommend him and can't wait to work with him again!

FAQs

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I love to get to know my clients. With new customers I like to get on a video call and talk through their needs and requirements for the services that I will be providing. For weddings I like to do this in depth, meeting multiple times before the wedding day so that we can really hammer out the details and make sure you get everything you want out of your wedding photography!
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a BFA from The Ohio State University in photography and have been shooting professionally since 2014.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I started off working with a mentor that I met through a friend in college. She was a full time wedding photographer, and took me under her wing teaching me everything she knew as I assisted her shooting secondary at many of the weddings that she covered. I later moved to San Francisco and later Philadelphia where I started my own Photography business.
